date: 18 Oct. 2023; location: in Hamburg, Germany; on leaves of a scrub at the border of a park with large trees and a pond; a male fly of the Platypezidae family? probably a Protoclythia species? Thank you for any ID comments! Best regards, Volker Volker Achterberg attached the following image:  [299.3Kb] Edited by Volker Achterberg on 16-01-2024 15:40 |

Hi Volker, I think it's a male Platypeza sp. - if you have more photos, esp. lateral ones of the head and the posterior side of a wing, we may go to species level. Reemer, de Jong (2016): De Nederlaandse breedvoetvliegen Greetings, Eric |

Reemer, de Jong (2016): De Nederlaandse breedvoetvliegen Thanks a lot, Eric! Unfortunately, I couldn't take any more pictures of this fly. To know at least the right genus is excellent. Next time I try to get more pictures. Best regards, Volker |
